Does anyone know the density in pounds of this topper? Basically, is it very soft...do you sink in or is it firm enough for proper support?

You lay on it and it doesn't sink in, it conforms to your shape. I am just over 200 lbs and I find it just right on top of my mattress. I also have a lightweight quilted topper from one of those "mart" stores on it. I'm happy with this product. I also have relief from arthritis.

It's not nearly as firm as I thought it was going to be. I also have a King and Queen from another company on Amazon which were advertised as firm and definitely lived up to that description. Anyways, my point is, if firm is what you're looking for then you won't find it with this mattress. You'll "sink" into this one and that's probably not what you want.

It started out very firm - we bought a 4" mattress topper to add some cushion to the top. Now that we've had it for approx 60 days, it's softened up to about medium firmness and is very comfortable.

I don't recall the density but I bought it for my little boy and he wanted a really soft bed and this one is exactly that. If you are looking for firm, this is not the one for you. My son loves it though.

In my experience it was, and still is a firm topper. I never did feel like I was sinking into it. It just took me a couple of nights to get used to its unique "feel." I am a somewhat large person (6' 1"/240lbs) and I wouldn't be without this topper.

I would say that I found it to be slightly more firm than my previous memory foam mattress topper, but find it to be quite supportive as well. I would not say that it is too firm. It's supportive, and I just love that it's not toxic in the way that other foam toppers can be. I'm currently pregnant. I'm 5'3" and weigh almost 150lbs at 20 weeks. There's some nice "give" to the foam, but as I said, I still find it to be supportive. I hope this helps! Good luck.

It sinks a little but it is definitely not a memory foam. Like I said in my previous review, it seems to be that firmness is a very personal thing. Some people feel this is too firm for them.After my back went out again in January I placed a piece of plywood between the mattress and this foam and I have been sleeping like that ever since. For some people this would be unbearable but it works for me. I hope this helps.

it most definitely conforms. i'm a heavier person, but even my kids sunk down in it a bit. it FEELS great, and yes, it does almost feel like you're in a comfortable supported position when lying down. i just noticed after a few nights that my hip and back felt worse....almost like when i attempted to roll over onto my stomach or side as i always sleep, is when i ran into issues.

This is definitely high density. I think it's more of a slow sinking. If you sit on the edge of the bed, it will sink down fairly quickly, but because you're putting all your weight in one spot. Depending on your height & the height of what you're putting the mattress on, it can make getting into bed a bit gymnastic! It feels like a very firm mattress, but with the cushioning you can only get from foam. We love it!

I am not sure but the density seems firm to me. It is a very comfortable and supportive pillow.

it's pretty firm - but it's memory foam - so you sink in a little. i really like mine, and i generally like a firmer mattress.

I actually purchased mine because of the reviews relating to the softness. Mine; however is incredibly firm. We cannot sleep on it. Moved it to the guest room and the guests complain that it is too firm. Our personal experience is that it caused more pain, mostly in the hips.

I think it is fairly dense. Firm feel but still soft. Holds body up really well. But allows pressure points to sink down some. Such as hips and shoulder when laying on the side. I really like mine. Wish I had ordered much sooner. ............ Tony

It's a much different feel than memory foam. I have purchased two on Amazon, not from this particular vendor. Both of them came with covers. I absolutely love sleeping on it. Difficult to say whether the feel is softer or firmer than memory foam. Don't worry about it being too firm, not the case at all. We bought king size for our bed and it is heavy. Initially getting it unpackaged and set up is easier with two people. The second one we purchased was for my 80 year old mother, she says it feels like heaven.

This memory foam mattress is very very firm....I am looking to get either a topper or a regular real mattress to put on top...

My husband, who was 280 lbs. when we bought the topper, felt it was too soft/not firm enough. After losing 70 pounds, he now feels it's just right. So I agree with the individual who suggested your son might prefer a more dense/thicker topper. If you can find a denser mattress by this manufacturer, it would be a good purchase. I love our topper, by the way.

It's firm but not stiff, my son isnt heavy enough to give it the "sinking" effect when laying on it, he is 24lbs 15 months and sleeps well on it, soft and cushy isn't good for their spines at this age so I opted to wait for the super "comfy" you can cover it with a nice fleece baby blanket & get a similar effect (I did this) hope I answered your concern.
